embodiment 1

[0025]A system for communicating a signal between a tool and a signal processing unit, the system comprising: a signal processing unit configured to at least one of transmit and receive the signal; a first cable coupled to the signal processing unit; and a tool comprising a second cable extending from the tool and configured to at least one of receive the signal transmitted by the signal processing unit and transmit the signal received by the signal processing unit; wherein signal is communicated between the first cable and the second cable by crosstalk.

embodiment 2

[0026]The system according to any prior embodiment, wherein the first cable is not hardwired to another device.

embodiment 3

[0027]The system according to any prior embodiment, wherein the first cable is hardwired to at least one of another tool and an impedance termination.

Abstract

A system for communicating a signal between a tool and a signal processing unit includes a signal processing unit configured to at least one of transmit and receive the signal and a first cable coupled to the signal processing unit. The system further includes a tool having a second cable extending from the tool and configured to at least one of receive the signal transmitted by the signal processing unit and transmit the signal received by the signal processing unit, wherein signal is communicated between the first cable and the second cable by crosstalk.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the benefit of an earlier filing date from U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 62 / 539,773 filed Aug. 1, 2017, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND[0002]Boreholes are drilled into the earth to provide wells for the production of hydrocarbons. Well completions involve the assembly of tubulars and installation of the tubulars and other equipment into the wells. Typically, the other equipment may include downhole tools, instruments and sensors that communicate with a surface signal processing unit via a direct cable connection. Unfortunately, these cable connections can be unreliable due to the harsh downhole environment. Hence, it would be appreciated in the hydrocarbon production industry if apparatuses and methods were developed that could provide reliable and robust communication with the surface.BRIEF SUMMARY[0003]Disclosed is a system for communicating a signal between a...
